jewish artists
an artist collective
ORA is a community of Jewish artists who share a love of art and creativity.
We support each other through camaraderie, networking, and continued learning. We foster confidence and courage through our collective body of wisdom and grow ourselves as artists. Our exhibitions, art sales, and educational opportunities build networking and professionalism within the larger arts community.
About Us
As a collective, we have created opportunities to exhibit members’ works of art, conduct educational workshops, and strengthen our community through shared experiences. We bring together Jewish artists and patrons as we support each other’s artistic development.
Meet the Artists
We are collective of over 50 artists from the Oregon and SW Washington area. Our artists present at shows and galleries throughout the year and meet regularly for critquie groups. We encourage each artistic voice and nurture the creative soul.
Events
We host three to five pop up events around Portland every year. Join us at these events where many of our artists showcase their newest work for purchase. Want to bring ORA to your next event? Contact us to book our artists!
